Kefka = Richard O’Brien
Vin Diesel as Vargas? Thats a huge expense for such a small part.
Leo needs to be a strong, charismatic person. He also needs to be played by a REAL actor.
I nominate Bill Murray for Arvis. I don’t know why.
Switch McKellen and Lee round.
Well, this is more of a dream-cast, not a realistic-cast, the hardest part wouldnt be paying the actors, but getting them all agree to act with one another.
I thought of someone better for Locke instead of Leo… that guy who’s in the Bourne movies… Cant remember his name, but he was in Dogma too, next to Benny… I always thought that guy who was in Conan would make a good thief… but man, that guys old… maybe if we can reverse time… shrugs
Make Leo be Edgar, or Leo… heh, get Leo to play as Leo… funny
Matt Damon?
The Rock is incredibly charismatic, and is also a hot ticket in hollywood right now, drawing 15 million dollars a picture.
yeah ! Matt Damon !
I just don’t think he would be right for the part.
I don’t know…you need to think of certain factors.
1.Leo is dark skinned.
2.Leo is tall.
3.Leo has to carry himself with a certain air.
I think the Rock has that air. But if you have a better recommendation, I’m willing to hear you out. Until then, Rock stays in as a place holder.
I guess you’ve got a point.
A good choice, better than Leo.
What about Wedge? And does anyone have a better suggestion for Arvis than Bill Murray?
Interestingly, I think Tim Curry would make a good Geshtal.
I gave the role of Wedge to Chris Casama, who played Scorpion in the Mortal Kombat films. I gave Vicks to Byron Mann who played Ryu in the Street Fighter films. Since those are two pretty bit parts, I didn’t think it was worth hiring anyone too well known for them.
Hmm, Tim Curry, what was he in?
I can’t quite remember what I saw him in, but he had this sneering powerful villian thing going on, which is perfect for Kefka.
How old is Kefka?
- But unlike characters like Terra or Relm, Kefka’s age isn’t really important to his character. I could see Kefka being played by anyone upto age 50.
Someone who can do posh and prissy would be good for Owzer.
Personally I nominate Alexis Denisof. Anyone who’s watched Angel or Buffy’s third season will see why.
Who’s Gungho again?
The matron could be done by that woman who plays May Parker in Spiderman. I can’t remember her name.

I think Defoe would be perfect for Kefka.
This could just be me, but I don’t remember Leo being black.
Not all actors have to match their character colour.

He’s black… Laurence would make the perfect Leo in my opinion.
Keep Keanau Reeves out of my movie. lol. Talentless actor.
I disagree about Christina Ricci. Anna Paquin is the perfect casting of Terra in my opinion. Ricci always plays sort of dark, troubled youths. Terra is more innocent, Niave and completely oblivious. In X-Men Anna played a confused youth really well. That’s how I think Terra should be played.
I was thinking about it, and I don’t think Vin Diesel is a good fit for the Sabin role. I would just prefer a more talented actor, and less of an action hero for the role of Sabin. Vin Diesel works best as Vargas in my opinion.
Leonardo DiCaprio is too highly payed/respected of an actor to play the role of a wild boy. He would never do it. He’s also far too old.
Laurence Fishbourne is a great actor for the part of Leo; Really good choice.
William Defoe is a good actor for the part of Kefka.
